This unique espresso cup is inspired by the world famous Giant’s Causeway, with its unusual hexagon shaped rocks. The hexagonal theme is carried through to the innovative and imaginative Giant’s Causeway Visitor Centre which was opened in June 2012 and is both eco and carbon footprint friendly.
It was designed by the architects Heneghan Peng who won an international competition for the design. The construction was carried out by Gilbert Ash. The exemplary building is for the most part underground with an accessible grass roof which blends seamlessly into the environment. The polished basalt columns that form the façade rise out of the ground and give the viewer a modernistic interpretation of the causeway stones.
Made from ceramic.
